Views of President Barack Obama's health care law have risen slightly since August, despite the widespread technical problems associated with the launch of its online health care exchanges, according to a Gallup poll released Wednesday.The poll finds that 45 percent of Americans generally approve of the Affordable Care Act, up from from 41 percent two months ago. Disapproval of the law, currently at 50 percent, remains roughly the same, with most of the newfound approval coming from those who were formerly undecided.The rise in opinion was by far greatest among Democrats, 83 percent of whom now approve of the law, up 12 points since August. Support among independents rose by 4 points, to 39 percent, while support among Republicans remained steady at 11 percent.Those aged 18 to 29 were the mostly likely to approve, with support falling among older age groups, particularly for those 65 and older.
this is good news it also shows that less people are being influenced by republican misinformation and positive reports of sign up of ACA tends to rebuke the lies that have been told for the last 5 years concerning the bill, what they said would happen almost did but it was because of their arrogant action of shutting down the gov't.
As HuffPost reported on Tuesday, five out of six other new surveys asking about approval of the health care law show a slight increase in approval of the law since September. The pattern across multiple surveys suggests that the effect is small, but real. Yet, the surveys' timing -- at a vulnerable political moment for the GOP, and largely before the recent spate of stories about issues with the HealthCare.gov website -- suggest that the uptick in approval may be fleeting.
trouble with spending years beating up on a good thing is you tend to run out of vitriol and then the truth starts to emerge among those who fencewalked or were against it have now heard so much that just doesn't seem to fact check, even republican base will eventually hear the truth and actually question the right wing barkers as to whether they were being lied to for all this time.
